I've given up on any direct download methods. It's a game of wack-a-mole and the players often don't share their tricks anymore, or charge a pretty penny.
Try OBS screen recording if you want a free option.
For anything that doesn't work with, I've just gone the extra mile and now have a Streaming Stick plugged into an HDMI Splitter and then piped into an HDMI capture card, which then pipes into OBS. My setup can only do 1080p SDR, but that's enough for me.
Okay, so OBS looks like the only feasible route then, thanks!
Not sure specifically about Amazon but there's always the hole between the video cord and the monitor where output is unencrypted. Do these movies not have a purchase and download or DVD option out there?
It's usually not unencrypted though. You need a special device to defeat the encryption (HDCP).
You don't. That encryption was cracked long ago and your average HDMI splitter will bypass it completely.
They are from the 90s, so DVD would be my plan B. However, that would take significant effort to hunt down, so I wanted to check other options first
Analog for the win! 😁
Redfox Anystream. Nothing higher than 1080p though.
1080 is totally sufficient, I'll look into this, thanks!
I mean you could record through a capture card.
True but considering the costs, I would rather just buy the movies on DVD and rip them
As long as you have hardware acceleration turned off you can screen capture with obs
